Everything about this picture is amazing... The sharpness, the editing, the riding, the bike, the rider... I'm out of words... About time this got POD. Congrats and props to the rider, photographer, and editor.
bikel4if is just pissed because he tried to DH but realized its waaayy to fast and hardcore for him... so now he jumps off curbs and calls it hucking
killer pic! he does look like a mini-being among those rocks and trees
looks like a fun pinnable course

nanacaveman ur wrong DH is super fun but freeriding is just as fun but that other guy is prob a gayass BMXer
Im not trying to start an argument, but what is with pinkbike and helmets? I mean, it ultimetly his choice to wear one or in this case, buckle one. Right?
Yeah, "extremedhracer" havent you ever put your full-face on and forgoten to buckle it. Everybody makes mistakes.
TOO MANY DH PODS!!!, ITS GETTING BORING!!!!

Does it not seem like this is an excellent example of merging two different photographs...since that is what it is. The shot is TOO crisp to be real, no offence or anything, but to whoever fiddled with it did a wonderful job. If you do not know what I am talking about, let me clarify. The background is a picture of reasonably dry ground, and the rider has been added to the foreground of the picture.
You're right? I always liked that the rider looks so tiny compared to the rocks and debris lying around. Now that you mentioned it, it became clear. THANKS!
na mate its real. its one the all terrain cycles boys. theyve all got pics that are that good. not sure who took them though.
Auzzy-man
ooor:
the photographer could have been using an insanely nice f/1.8 or faster lens so that the shutter speed could be insanely high (1/4000 or so) freezing the subject without the picture being underexposed... that huge aperture gives the pic just about no depth of field, so everything fore and aft of the rider is out of focus...
totally possible, especially if youre a good photographer

This has to be POD!

How do they get it so sharp and so vibrant, but it's kinda funny how it looks like a model, like a model train would be though or like a warcraft scene lol

Very nice, maybe a bit too sharp but I think it's real, shame about the helmet strap, it's so pointless wearing a helmet it you can't be arsed to do it up.
[Reply]
I love the way people cannot tie helmets with the two rings, what gives like are ya stupid or what. This is a great shot but no way should it be POD with a flapping strap like that!!!
Those kinda straps are lame they take ages to do up. i much prefer the clip on my giro remedy! Nice clip POD 4 Sure

Amazing shot. Even though it is a photoshopped image, (the rider has been super-imposed onto the backround, thats why all the stuff in the backround is the wrong size/scale. have another look before you negative prop me!)
It has been professionally done to an outstanding standard, whoever did it is skilled! and if they dont do graphics for a living, they should!!
Excellent colours and sharpness. deserves POD for sure.

That is at Stainburn, the new decent line, background looks odd as the area has just been clear felled and then picked over by "Clixbys" with a BIG 360 rock grabber/crusher to build the new line. regards PJ @ singletraction.org.uk Yorkshire trailbuilders. Another shot of the same track http://www.singletraction.org.uk/gallerypage.php

[Reply]
this picture is surley fake , by backgroung but dont get me wrong its good and maybe pod but would be better in reality .
[Reply]
coooool i ride this trail alllll the time but if he wants to keep the trail a secret i wont say were it is. i did the boulder drop 4 the first time a few weeks a go. well pleased!!
To everyone who thinks it was photoshopped i can assure you its not. All those pics were taken by a professional photographer for a local news paper, the guy is amazing As for any other criticism get a grip go ride your bike and get a better pic. Peace out dogs.
